Nimblist
Real-time shared shopping lists with recipe import and meal
What this is
A shared shopping list for households that syncs in real time and can pull ingredients straight from a recipe URL or photo. Lists are free; recipe import and meal planning cost extra.
Our one-line summary — not the founder’s tagline.
- How it works
- Shared shopping lists sync in real time across a household (ticking an item off removes it for everyone), items auto-group by supermarket aisle, and recipe ingredients can be imported from a URL, a photo, or a Chrome extension straight onto the list; a built-in meal planner compiles a week's groceries.
- What's different
- Installs as a PWA and also has a self-hostable Community Edition via Docker for people who want to run their own instance.
- Pricing
- Lists and sharing are free; recipe import and the meal planner are a paid tier with a 7-day trial.
- Best for
- Households that want a shared, real-time shopping list tied to recipe and meal planning.

Where it shows up
Every group here is a page of its own — each one checked daily.
The numbersIs it still shipping, is it overpriced, where did it land — and what the price is built from.
League price & chart
No money. No seat. It goes on your record — and in 28 days reality settles it.
Calls are closed while we rebuild accounts. You can still read every one of them.
Productivity. Launched 18d ago on Product Hunt, picking up 7 votes. Today, it's been quiet for 9 days and the price has started to bleed.
Already bleeding a little every day, and it accelerates the longer it stays quiet.
We check this site every day, ourselves. A founder can post “still working on it” — a claim like that doesn't price. What we price is what we can verify from the outside: evidence, not announcements. The real question isn't “will this be huge?” — it's “will they still be moving in four weeks?”
The market viewHow this launch is priced and ranked in our league — the investor side of the page.
ranked by the reality anchor, not the market price
It launched on Product Hunt with 7 votes. It also showed up on 1 other board — but didn't place well enough on any of them, so none of them add to the price. Listing on twelve directories is free; placing well on them isn't.
No matter how much money goes in. There is no pump here — you can't make yourself right by buying more. The line only moves on things that actually happened: an award, revenue that grew, a new platform, code that shipped — or silence.
En eski 4 hareket bu listede yok — toplam 16 olay var. 1 quiet day in between are left out — nothing happened on them. A launch that goes quiet eases down a little at a time — never a cliff you could have run from the night before.
Daily tracking just started for this launch — the first point is on the board. A second reading lands with tomorrow's run, and the curve builds from there.
How the launch is moving on its own board, day by day — the crowd's attention.
A flat line is normal: votes stop within a day or two of launch, on every board. What's unusual — and what actually counts — is a launch that keeps pulling votes long after its day is over.
About
Nimblist is a collaborative shopping-list and meal-planning app for households. Shared lists sync in real time — tick an item at the shop and it disappears on everyone's phone — and items auto-group by supermarket aisle so the shop is one clean pass. Import any recipe from a URL or a photo (or capture it with the Chrome extension) and its ingredients drop straight onto your list; the built-in meal planner compiles a whole week's groceries for you. Lists and sharing are free; recipe import and the planner are a paid tier with a 7-day trial. Installs as a PWA, and there's a self-hostable Community Edition (Docker).
Where it launched
2 platformsThe board it did best on sets the price. Every other board only adds to it if the launch also placed high on that board too — because just showing up somewhere isn't an achievement. Listing on twelve directories is free; placing well on them isn't.
